Mcrwcopto Society.
Mr. Stephen Helm, of the Royal Microscopic society, who is also a member of the microscopical section of the Brooklyn (& Y.) institute, described at a recent meeting a simple and very efficient method of gather* ing pond life. Following if an illustrated description of the same, as originally given by Scientific American:
OATIIKR1SO MICROSCOPIC OBJECTS. The object* ore gathered by means of a wide months* I buttle clamped in tonga attached to along handle, cane, or even a fishing rod. By means of this device mod can be removed from the bottom, the stems and leaves of aquatic plants can be scraped so an to remove •nimalfnil^Mi, and objects can be readily dipped from pools and shallow place! To concentrate the material, Mr. Helm employs a wide mouthed bottle or jar provided with a perforated cork, in which is inserted a funnel for receiving the material, and another funnel is inverted and placed within the jar or bottlo, with its nozzle extending upward through the stopper. Over the lower end of this funnel is stretched apiece of thin muslin, and to the upper end Is applied a short piece of rubber pipe, which is retained in a curved position by a thread tied around the nock of the bottle. The material gathered is poured into the funnel, the water escapes through the strainer, and the objects are retained in the Ixtttle. Mr. Holm said that the booked knlfo (which wo have shown in the engraving) was of great utility in cutting and Ashing out parts of aquatio plants and submerged branches ait roots, which are often teeming with microscopic life.
A Substitute for a to Dale Covers. The new plan of using a cotton fabric for covorlng cotton bales instead of jute is finding favor at the south. The cotton cover, it appears from various representations, is the most economical, the saving beiug equivalent to again of sixteen (xnmds of cotton per balo. The Mn^iiinis mill*, of New Orloaus, and tho Lnno mills, of New Orleans, allow ten pounds extra weight on overy bale of cotton covered with tho new cotton bagging.
Fnlry Rocks of Xoro Scot la. Tho Smithsonian institution at Washington ha* sont an expedition to Nova Scotia anil secured fnc-slmiles of tho "fairy rock*," on which are curious hieroglyphic characters, evidently very old, which may throw some light on the history of the early discoveries of America. Tho markings are cut in upon a rook of highly polished slate, aud the intaglio is about a sixteenth of an inch duep.
An Kliiotio Mucilage.
Dissolve 1 part of salicylic edl in 30 parts of alcohol, odd 3 parts of soft soap and 8 part* of glycerine. Shako thoroughly and add the mixture to a mucilage prepared from 03 parts of gum arable aud the requisite amount of water (about ISO [x\rts). This mucilage, according to Populnr Science News, kcc}M well, and when it dries remains elastic without tendency to breaking.

THE CURIOSITY SHOP.
Theorlee as to Cbe leve ef
Why jupmm tmiap have been fotod Hv* fag in this lone i»«i of desolation baa given rise to no little theorizing and speculation, tbe of which seems to be that they are croeUy forced to abide here by tbe aoppoeod greater strength of tbe savages to the sooth of tKom My own ideas are with the "respectable minority" which believes that they are foand in these regions for the same rea» eons that we find the reindeer, the musk ox and tbe walrus that is, it suits their peculiar temperament and disposition better than any other climate or condition possibly could, and they are no more forced into tbe frigid none by other savagee than "the animals named are held there by the antelope, buffalo or caribou of lower latitudes. When they are taken from their hyperborean home they are as restless to return as the castaways in their own land are to get back to civilization and, singular enough, despite all their desolate surroundings, they are tbe most happy and contented race, savage or civilised, in the four corners of tbe earth, although it is the coldest corner. Tbe tale told by Capt Hall of tbe deep longing of tbe sick and sinking Eskimo, Eudlago, to see hia land of ice and snow before he died, and his joy on being carried to tbe deck of the Arctic bound ship when the first iceberg was sighted, is as pathetic as any ever told of the return of Arctic refugees to their land of flowers and forests, and clearly shows that patriotism and love of home is circumscribed by no parallels of latitude nor influenced by climatic conditions—Lieut. Bcbwatka.
Lost Atlantis.
The story of tbe "Lost Atlantis" is now considered to be mythical. Plato was the first to mention tbe lost continent he says that an Egyptian priest described it to Solon it was west of tbe pillars of Hercules, waa larger than Libya and Asia taken together, and was peopled by a large population begot by Neptune of mortal women. Nine thousand years before the time of Plato, at the end of along war betweenihe Athenians and tho inhabitants of Atlantis, the latter place waa suddenly engulfed by the sea. Borne people consider the Canary islands to be tbe remains of the lost Atlantis others think that it wasn't really lost, and that a vogue idea of tho American continent furnished the basis for the legend. Books have been written on tho subject by Rudbeck, who died in 1703, "Atlantica," in which he tried to prove tbe identity of Atlantis and the Scandinavian peninsula by Bircherod, "Do Orbo Novo non Novo," 1685 of recant years, by Martin, "Etudes sur le Timee de Platon," 1841, and by Ignatius Donnelly, "Atlantis, the Antediluvian World."
Sugar In Watermelons.
According to tho report of the commissioner of agriculture for 1886, it appears that there was considerable inquiry in that year concerning the possibility of making sugar from watermelons, and the chemist of the department made an analysis with a view to ascertaining the quantity of crystallizablo sugar in this fruit The result of a number of analyses showed that in no case could watermelons be used for tho manufacture of crystallised sugar. The highest percentage of sucrose found in any case was 4.10. The mean of tbe whole number of analyses of sucroso was 1.9& If our readers will refer to the report alluded to, pages 845,846,847, 848 and 3-19, he may gatbor further information on this subject.
Bohemian.
In "society" "Bohemian" is a term of mild reproach bestowed on persona of unconventional habits. But a "Bohemian*' In the real sense of the word is a person, man or woman, who does not go into "society," who is happy-go-lucky, unconventional, now "flush," now 'short'* of money who, having money, spends it freely, enjoying it, and, having none, hopes for it in tho future who makes the best of everything, and takes life as it comes. Your true Bohemian is a philosopher, and in spite of his unconventional ity he is at least as apt to be respectable as a leader in conventional society.
Attributes of the Emerald.
Tbe Greeks dedicated tho emerald to Mercury. The Turks believe it will make a coward bravo and will avert plague. It has been held to denote success in life, and the Hindoos believe that it gives the wearer power to avert plague and invests him with courage. The following stanza has been urged as a sentimental definition of the emerald:
Who first beholds tho Ugbt of day In spring's sweet flowery month of Stay And wears an emerald all her lift Shall be a loved and happy wife.
The East Indie*.
The narno East Indies Is now generally dimmed it was formerly applied vaguely to that part of southern Asia lying east of the River Indus and to the islands adjacent Thus it took in on tbe mainland Hlndostan, Burmah, Si&m, Annam and Malacca, and the islands of Oeylon, Sumatra, Java, Borneo, the Celebes, the Philippines and the rest of the great archipelago. Mon recently, according to Colton^s atlas, tbe namo was applied to those places, excluding Hindostan and Ceylon. So the term takes in both mainland and islands.
As to Ireland.
In 1800 the population of Ireland was 88 per cent, of that of tbe United Kingdom in 1886 it was .tly 13 per cent In 1861 there were 906,12a inhabited booses in 1881 only 014,108 in 1871 there were SI ,&0 uninhabited booses in 1981, 57,857. In 18*3 there 310,9t3 paupers in 1886,6S3,031

Four Hundred Tears Ago.
In one of tho anciont libraries of Paris, tells Youth's Companion, there is a copy of a child's reader printed at Dijon, in BurSandy, 388 years ago. It shows th&t the noon of making the acquisition of knowledge agreeable to children is not of recent origin.
Tho book bears on the title page the name of the book, which is simply Roast Pig, and contains also a picture of a pretty littih pig on a spit roasting before a fire.
At the top of every page in this reader is a picture of something good to eat, such as an apple, a pear, a tart, a leg cf mutton, a sausage, and finder the picture the naiire of the object is printed in large and in small typo. Thon follows a few lines of reading about it, sometimes in rhyme, sometimes in plain prose. Thus, under a pleasing picture, which would be very interesting to a boy before dinner, we read in French:
Good venison pie Is not for boys that Be.
Tbe picture of a bare suggests the remark: "Hare pie i? nice ask any one who has tried it*
Birds' Store Houses.
Some of my bird friends who spend their winters in Mexico, says a writer in St Nicholas, have told me how the birds there manage to store and eat the acorns, of which they are as fond as robins are of strawberries. In order to save the desired morsel, the birds carry tbe acorns in their bills, sometimes for miles, to the steep dry side* of a mountain which in winter is covered with the hollow stalks of the last year's agave flowers. Beginning at the bottom, they bore, with their skillful beaks, little holes in these dead stalks. Tbe holes are then filled with acorns, and by and by, when food grows scarce, our birds come back to their mountain sido store houses, take out an acorn at a time and fly with it to a neighboring yuoca tree, in the bark of which they bore an opening large enough to hold the acorn firmly then they can insert the mat, break it open and eat it in comfort

Wonders of Modern Sonery. Some most remarkable surgical achievements by Dr. Maximilian Klein are ohronicled in Memorabllieu, a professional journal. A man accidentally had the great toe of tbe left foot cut off in the middle of the first joint The severed piece remained hanging to the foot, but the connecting skin was scarcely thicker than a thread. Dr. Klein sewed ou the fragment, dressed it with iodoform, and had the satisfaction, in twentytwo days, of finding the wound healed and the toe perfectly sound and flexible.
Encouraged by unexpected success, Dr. Klein, who is a German military surgeon, applied similar treatment in another instance. A recruit, in order to disable himself and so escape from military service, deliberately cut off his forefinger with an ax at tho second joint The finger end was lost and could not be found until half au hour had elapsed. It was then oold and blue. Nevertheless, Dr. Klein sewed it to tbe stump and applied a bandage of iodoform gauze. As eaf ly as the second day it was evident that circulation had been partially re-established throughout the finger, and in six weeks the man had not only left tho hospital, but was doing the very riflo drill which he had hoped to shirk. The finger was, in fact, as serviceable as it had ever been.
There is a decidedly Munchausenish flavor about these stories, but their appearance in a reputable journal, together with tho wonderful advances in modern surgical science, entitles them to some credit
The Prevention of Chilblains. To prevent chilblains and cold and sweaty feet, keep the feet dry and warm. Wash them 8eve»al times a week, just before retiring, in cold water (not ice oold), and rub them quite dry with coarse towels wear thlok woolen socks, and not cotton provide yourself with two pairs of cork solos for your boots, and wear each pair a day at a time alternately, taking care to place tbe ones not in use near the fire, so that they may become perfectly dry. Should tho linings at your boots Indicate moisture, dry tbem also.
SOCIAL ETIQUETTE.
A Bode, Banfh Habit Equally Obnoslooi in Moo or Woman. Nothing makes a man so obnoxious to hit follow beings as a habit of pushing for it interferes at the same time with their comfort and their self respect Wo oan forgive the person who treads upon oar toes, as soon as the pang is past, for it may have been an oversight, and no generous mind bears malice for an unintentional wrong bat we always hate tbe man who deliberately squares his shoulders and elbows his way through a crowd, poshing against as with no more concern than if we were so many posts. We know be does it of set purpose, because be considers his own convenience of incalculably greater importance than curs, and therefore we resent his conduct
But this evil habit of poshing fs by no means confined to the sterner sex. Woman, gentle woman, it mast be confessed, is no whit behind her brother in this respect Observe her at public gatherings, a fair or any of the many exhibitions. She is well and sometimes lavishly dressed her voice and manner are often sttch as we usually associate with the idea of a lady and yet— though doubtlsai, if opposed, sto would be tbe first to claim all tbe privileges of her sex —she practically nsrwrts her "woman's rights" to push with the most exasperating persistency. We dislike that woman, and, despite the evidence of voice and manner, we know that at heart she is no true lady. For in this straggle to have oar own way, it Is the weakest that must go to the wall and thus, while poshing aside ber more fragile sister, she virtually throws herself 00 tbe chivalry of the sterner sex, whom she hopes to be allowed to elbow oat of tbe way with impunity.

JOLOGY AND HYGIENE.
BsaMwIii »eaiar%alile Adikil*meate of Modai* Biu|wy. loos at a new 111 following train of modern inventions ia thai of sunstroke. A French physician states workmen employed in operating electric at certain large steel works are tubto a form of sunstroke, which be attributes to the intense light radiated from the focus of the forge. Ordinary arc lights are incapable of producing such effects, as the light is not sufficiently intense bnt these forges emit a light of more than a hundred thousand candles from a few square centimeters of surface, producing on men exposed to their glare physiological consequences previously unheard of. Frequently, after two or three hours' work, the men complain of pains more car lees intense in the neck, the face and the forehead, simultaneously with which tbe color of the skin is changed to reddish brown. Further, in spite of the precaution taken by the men of shielding their eyes with dark glasses, the retina is affected to such a degree that for some minutes after ceasing work the operatives are totally blind to all objects illumined with common daylight, nor is perfect vision restored till nearly an hour after. The conjunctiva are irritated, and remain in a state of congestion for forty-eight hours and this is accompanied by a painful feeling, as of some foreign body introduced under the eyelids. The secretien of tears is augmented, a constant flow being kept up for twenty-four hours, during which the patient suffers from insomnia, due to pain and the abnormal flow of tears, and possibly also to fever. During the following days the skin peels off the face and neck, which become of a deep red oolor, fading away about tbe fifth day. In cases of ordinary sunstroke, beat may have some influence but in those considered above the whole effect is doe solely to tbe aotioo of an intense light

"MARRIAGE NOT A FAILURE.
The Brave and PiaHltul Men and Women Who Prove It. A young husband wastes all tbe years of his early married life in a hard and at times rain endeavor to keep his ambitions young wife in the same social status or "set" in which be married ber. The years that should be the gathering years of their lite, when tbe borne should be secured and the basis laid for a competence that may supply tbe needs of a growing family, theee are the years usually spent in an exhaustive attempt to keep up the social follies and "fads" of tbs day. There follow discontent and irritability, for, say what they may, it takes more than the usual state of grace attained by men to keep tbem saintly in temper when they are over their ears in debt Then follow troubles innumerable, and we are told by thoso who ought to know that marriage is a failure. The man, true to bis hereditary instincts, says: "Ifs the woman T' and the woman keeps up her traditional reputation for being a perpetual contradiction by retorting: "It's the man." It is certainly a strong argument in favor of ^he institution that there are men brave enough to answer the popular conundrum by saying: "Ask my wife," and women confident enough to reply: "Ask my husband." It does not soem to have entered the minds of those who argue that marriage is a failur^ that if it is a failure there is ono palpable reason for it, viz: that it is because the men or women are failures. Certainly there are some economic reasons that may enter into this problem A young man whose love has not ruu away with his mathematics can easily see that marriage would be a disastrous failure for him if he should marry a young woman who annually .costs ber father mora than he himself can earn in a whole year. The young man of today who is ambitious to attain the means of his highest development, who wishes to make the best of his powers for himself and the world, seldom marries until that aim is assured. For Cupid is not so ofteu blind as the poet and the novolist would have us believe. In fact, he is becoming an expert accountant He knows that the modern Psyche dwells in a house owned by a landlord or a landlady. He knows, unfortunately, that she lives upon sugar and potatoes ajid beefsteak instead of tho nectar of roses, and as for her robes she is certainly not clothed with modesty or with a garment. More simplicity in the home life, less straining after social effects, more living ou the part of young married peoplo for each other, rather than tho domands of society, and especially tho olevation of the homo above the dictum of society, would at least go far toward solving tho popular conundrum.—Chicago Tribune.
Frightful Sanitary Ncgtect.
I am told that only a small part of Japan is cultivated, and the authorities state tknt two-teuths of it has as yot not been brought into use. Still, tho land that 1 have seen is so carefully cared for that this seems almost impossible. Tho country about Tokio and Yokohama is divided into garden patches, and there is not a weed to bo seen anywhere. Tho soil is as black as that of tbe Nil* valley and as deep as the top of tho state of Kansas, which Senator Ingalls says is so thick that you can push your arm down into it up to tho shoulder and pull out earth in your fist which is as rich as guana
The soil of Japan is kept in this state by tho use almost entirely of the fertilizer of the water closet Every bit of night soil is saved and tho sewage is carried in buckots and carts and scattered over the laud. This is done nightly, and at certain hours of tho evening Tokio smells worse than Naples. There is no system of sowerage in tho city save that of surface drainage, and it is a wonder to me that cholera and typhoid fever are not moro often epidemic. Tho smells from the fiokls and rice paddies aro as bad at certain times of tho year as are those of tho city, and Japan has much to learn regarding sanitary matters. With such conditions no country can havo a pure, healthy water, and In many of the homes hero tho water closet and tbe well are sido by side. Foreigners do not, as a rule, drink tho waters of Japan without having them first boiled and flltored. I carry a filter and an aloohol stove with me, and I never touch tho water outside of my hotel.—Frank CI. Carpenter's Letter.
